Thought this might be of interest to everyone. This was from 2008 so I don't think I'll get it. I have no idea who actually one the job but if it was based on cost the softwasher got it. Main price was for the large center building and the option was for the two wings to either side.

Yup that pretty much tells the story! I drove all the commercial washers crazy down here in Florida.

Question now is did he do us proud or did he hurt our industry?

It was ReNew. Don't know much about them as a company just what's on the website. The local franchise has been around awhile. Looks like he's the only softwasher in town.

Checked out their site. Love the steel hose reels, steel trailer and the one fiberglass tank next to the poly tank. That rig needs some non corrosive upgrades.

I sense that you don't like it AC. its all for the low price of $27,000 plus another $40,000 in start up costs. Doesn't make it very accessible to most people. Your spray skid and support system is clearly tops. We can be in business for ourselves but not by ourselves.
Thanks for the vision and hard work!

Thanks for the Thanks, I just really do enjoy helping people. I do have to pay the bills so I do have to charge a little. It all works out. The world is ROUND.
